seems like a tournament made for degenerate gamblers who hit withdrawals once the real tournament is down to 4 teams.
UCF basketball post season play?
- Thread starter Central Floridave
- Start date
There’s ZERO money for the schools…nothing. The tournament pays for the team’s expenses and the NIL goes to the CURRENT players on the basketball team.
And perhaps (if you were to win), that extra money would be enough to keep a player or two for next year.
Some players are genuinely happy where they’re at, but it’s hard to turn down more money from elsewhere. More money to a underclass man this year could be enough to deter them from leaving next year? You never know.
I went to the CBI games about a dozen years ago. They were fun. It was $5 to see Marcus Jordan play in the CBI. Donnie Jones was coach back then. He was fired by Danny White shortly after he arrived at UCF. His teams would get ahead by 10-20 points only to blow the lead at the end of the games. He was so Happy when he beat Dawkins last season. He walked right by us with a huge smile on his face. Also, I saw the winner of the Crown gets $300k to share. Then $100k for second and $50k for 3rd and 4th. That's a big incentive for the players.
got to be. there are teams in this tournament who are under .500 from our conference and yet they pick on us? has to be that hating ass fool.
I don’t think we have to worry about that. I don’t think we can win out.
That is the goal I hope for each year too. It has only happened once with Dawkins over the last 9 years. We have beaten and could beat some of the teams in the the NCAA tournament. Unfortunately we lost to many of the teams in the Crown. I hope we win the inaugural Crown Tournament. But, if we do, then we may be stuck with Dawkins even longer. They might give him another extension. Right now he is only guaranteed 1 more season unless he is bought out, and I doubt that will happen.
